This is very important to remember, and the rules associated with climbing here must be respected if it is to remain open to climbers. In order to climb or boulder at this area you must sign a waiver and pay a one-time $8 fee at the Portland Rock Gym. Be sure to carry photo ID with you when you're at the area. Respect the land owner's property, don't litter, don't add or remove any bolts without permission, etc. It would be a big loss to the Portland climbing community if Carver were to be closed to us so do your part to keep it open and accessable.

This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project.You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description

Scramble to the top of the large boulder. Makes some fun, hard arete moves that lead to technical face climbing. Join with Uncola at the jug on the left side of the arete. Finish on the last bolt of Uncola.

Location

Direct Start to Uncola.

Protection

This was sort of a heady lead at the start...I slung a nut around the old bolt head at the start and got a met. #2 in a small horizontal pocket just below this. The move to the actual first bolt isn't so hard, just committing.

The two 5.11d's at Carver seem really hard for the grade (Burning From the Inside being the other). Seems kind of strange. Is Cherry Cola really only one letter grade harder than Uncola? Both (Cherry & Burning) feel significantly harder than Angular Motion and on par with Wally Street for difficulty.
